"Man, I have to say that I still underestimated you. Now I have to congratulate you. You finally got your wish and became the head coach of the team."
After Martins entered the room, he gave Li Bin a hug and continued in a very happy tone, "I watched the game against Besiktas. Of course, I watched it on TV. I didn't
I'm interested in going to the scene - but I have to say that you did a good job, and some things far exceeded my expectations!"
Li Bin just smiled and said nothing. Martins quickly continued, "You will be a famous coach in Italy from now on. Are you interested in getting an agent? I'm a pretty good agent. I'll give it to you."
How about being an agent? You definitely won’t suffer!”
"Forget it, there's no need. I don't need help with coaching the team. As for other things, I don't need an agent. I don't have the heart to advertise for others, and I don't have any shortages.
That little money."
"That's not a decimal... Forget it, seriously, you come to me, if you don't need an agent yourself, then what is it?"
"It's like this. The winter break is here and I need to make a few deals. Although Luca may be doing a good job in this area, I need some help from you."
Li Bin's words made Martins nod immediately. He also knew that Li Bin was looking for him for no other reason than for buying and selling players. As an agent, if he had this information, he would indeed
You can make money. If the relationship between the agent and the team is good, you can make money, that is, by getting agency fees.
"First of all, I want to sell Gerrera."
"Does Guerrera not meet your requirements?" Martins was not surprised by this. They have known each other for many years, and he also knew some of Li Bin's requirements and thoughts on tactics. "Guerrera is an Australian. If you can wait until summer,
, if you sell him to the Premier League, you should be able to find a place to take over.
, the value will be higher. However, if there is a rush to sell in the winter, only Serie A teams will take over. As far as I know, Fiorentina is buying a defensive midfielder. They are interested in Donadale, but Guerrera obviously
Stronger than him. Florence is still relatively rich, and his worth may reach
Around 00,000 euros.”
This price is similar to what Li Bin considered. After all, midfielder players are in a low-priced position. Although the top three in the north can afford to spend money, they are no worse than anyone else, but the income of other teams is much worse than that of the Premier League.
Yes, even buyers can't afford it. Li Bin is very satisfied with being able to sell it at this price.
"Then, we have about 2.5 million to spend." Li Bin said, "Just in time, I also need you to help me make a few deals."
"How many transactions do we need to make for 2.5 million? This amount of money will be spent on just one person, right? What on earth do you think? But, okay, I listen to you, what should you do?"
"I noticed that our non-European quota for this season has not been used up. Simplicio has EU nationality, so we can buy a non-European player - I asked Borg to contact Donets for me.
They bought their midfielder, Ivorian Yaya Toure, the younger brother of Arsenal's Kolo Toure. They spent last winter
He bought it for 00,000 euros, but it was a transfer from the Belgian First Division to the Ukrainian Super League. We are a Serie A team, and we gave him a bigger stage and better opportunities. Therefore, we are determined to pay more than 1.5 million in transfer fees.
Don’t pay…”
"Are you possessed by Moggy?" Martins complained.
However, there is indeed nothing wrong with the transaction itself, and Martins also knows that it is a good deal.
Yaya Toure is not yet famous. After coming out of the Cote d'Ivoire football giant Abidjan Mimosa, he went to Arsenal for trial training, but because he did not have a labor certificate, he was rejected by Arsenal and went to Belgium. In the Belgian League
, and then moved to Ukraine - because he played for a small league team continuously and was a black player, he was not taken seriously by other teams. Until now, he has not become famous.
However, his strength is sufficient. Li Bin is now spending 1.5 million to buy him because he is betting that he can adapt to Serie A.
In the final analysis, player transfers are about fame and money. If you want to introduce a player, the club can use to lure the other party, that is, money and fame. Parma does not have a lot of money now, and its reputation is not very famous.
, Therefore, when recruiting, the disadvantage is still quite large. Therefore, Li Bin also focuses more on the teams in the minor leagues. After all, no matter how bad Parma is, it is still a team in the five major leagues. In this way
The reputation is enough for players who play for small teams.
The reason why Li Bin asked Martins to go is because Martins is an African and can better communicate with Yaya Toure. He is bound to win this deal, and Yaya Toure will be in his future.
He plays a very important position in the team.
"I'm going to Ukraine, no problem. So, what are you going to let Luca do?" After Martins figured it out, he also asked, "You can't leave him idle, can you?"
"Of course, I also took a fancy to a player, a backcourt player who played for Gremio. There was a player named Felipe Melo. He played well at Flamengo and in Cruzeiro.
It's almost impossible. When I arrived at Gremio, I also signed a short-term contract. The Brazilian team's league ended in the winter. You know,
In the winter, when the contract expires, he will have no job again. I am going to let Luka go to Brazil and sign him. He has an EU passport and it doesn’t cost much. He just has to compete with Maro from La Liga.
Let’s compete with the cards - we are also the seven sisters in Serie A after all, and we still have a bit of influence and advantage over Mallorca..."
"Did Galliani get naked together?"
Li Bin ignored him and then continued, "With these two people, our defense can be improved a lot. Both of them can meet my needs. We also have Simprisi on the bench.
Oh, this kind of lineup is enough for everything."
"You can really save money... You can spend 1.5 million on two defensive midfielders, and you can save enough... So, what about the forwards and defenders?"
"Let's settle the accounts one by one. As for defenders, I have taken a fancy to Chimbanda from Bastia, France - I can't find any player with less than 1 million who is more useful than him for the time being, so I will take him.
Just buy it. However, it is more troublesome to buy people in winter. This transaction will cost about 700,000 to 800,000 to complete."
"Ligue 1? This is fine."
The reason why the five major leagues are the five major leagues is because the income of the five major leagues is roughly the same. As a French Ligue 1 team, Bastia's income is actually not much worse than Parma. There is no need to sell people in the winter and buy people in the winter.
You will have to pay a slightly higher price. However, fortunately, Ligue 1 is an export-oriented league after all. French players are exported to other countries. They have a tradition of selling out players, so this deal is probably not difficult to get.
Of course, this deal is a bit risky. After all, Chimbanda is not a player known for his high football intelligence. It is difficult to say whether he can integrate. However, under the three-post system, the requirements for two wing players It is necessary to be able to fly up and down and run back and forth. But in Italy, in the prime of life, which full-back with this ability would cost less than four to five million? Therefore, all Li Bin can do is to take a gamble.
"If this is the case, three problems have been solved, but the last problem is, how to solve the forward problem? Where can you find a player to play football?"
"I've thought about this too." Li Bin said, "I want to get Adrian Mutu back."
"Mutu? The Mutu we bought from Chelsea? The Mutu who is now banned from the Premier League? The Mutu who has been terminated by Chelsea?" Martins suddenly figured out something, "Yes, he is banned by the Premier League, but He has not been banned from Serie A. As long as he can pass the drug test, he can play in Serie A... Do you want him to be exempted from the visa?"
"That's right. He was in the United States some time ago for medical treatment...well, drug detoxification. I went to see him and discussed it. In fact, he also had contact with Moji, but compared to the current situation where he has no place, Juventus, he would rather return to Parma, after all, he still has more hope to compete with Giuseppe Rossi."
"Where's Moji?"
"After all, he came from Parma and is willing to return to Parma. If this kind of competition fails, Moji will not fall out. After all, he has been in the circle for many years and knows the rules. This is not our person who robbed him. Originally That’s what gives us an advantage.”
Martins nodded before suddenly speaking, "But Chelsea has spoken. If another team signs Mutu, they will not hesitate to take it to court."
"They terminated Mutu's contract and did not allow other teams to sign him. So, do they have to stop playing football for the rest of his life before they are satisfied? I understand that after they spent money, the players became addicted to drugs. , they have spent their money in vain, and they are dissatisfied. However, Mutu cannot be stopped from playing football. If Chelsea does not terminate his contract, I am willing to negotiate a loan with Chelsea. But since Chelsea has terminated his contract, I cannot rent him. , and you can’t sign it, why should you just watch him sink like this? Mutu and I have a good relationship, and I can’t watch him go on like this.”
"But if they claim compensation from Parma..."
"Do you think FIFA is so efficient?" Li Bin said with a smile, "When it came time to sue, Mutu had already recovered, and I had a clear conscience. At that time, Parma had a new boss, and that was the new boss. It happened, and who knows if I was still in Parma at that time..."
In Li Bin’s memory, Mutu went to Juventus. Due to Mutu’s matter, Chelsea and Juventus had been fighting for many years. It was not until about 2012 that FIFA ordered Juventus to pay compensation. . 12 years - there are still eight years to go. If you pay the bill eight years later, and use players now, Li Bin thinks it is worth it.
"Four players, two visa-free, one French Ligue 1, one Uzbekistan Super League, your signings are really generous." After looking at Li Bin's signing list, Martins complained after a long time. .
"If I had money, I would buy football players - the problem is that I don't have money, so don't imitate Florentino. These players are all what I need and what I can use. With them
After that, my team can reach a higher level." Li Bin is full of confidence.
"But, Li, I have to remind you that the players you buy are from foreigners, so be careful something goes wrong."
This is what I want. Li Bin smiled. Nowadays, Parma is all Italian. Although they are united, they lack oppression and motivation. The small number of foreigners who mix in are also a motivation for them to move forward.
There are few foreigners, so they naturally dare not make trouble when they come to Italy. Moreover, they lack fellow countrymen in Italy and need the help of coaches. As a coach, you have to cultivate your own direct lineage.
Li Bin has considered all these issues from the inside out. After the signings, Parma will be a stronger team.
